A LibriVox recording of Selected Poems of John Clare, Volume 2.
Selected and read by David Barnes.
John Clare (1793 - 1864) was a farm labourer in the village of Helpstone, Northamptonshire, who became arguably England’s greatest nature poet. He rose to fame when his ‘Poems Descriptive of Rural Life and Scenery’ was published in 1820. His language preserves many local dialect words in a mixture of classical forms and heart-felt love of country life and nature.
This volume comprises fifteen of his bird poems.
(Summary by David Barnes).
